Some tiles had a water height of 4m on one edge and 0 on the other. OR apparently rendered them as 4m throughout. I changed the water level height to 0 on all four corners, and the flood abated. Low...

The Potomac is flooding over the George Washington Parkway in Open Rails but not in Train Simulator. There's a thread about this very flood in the Open Rails forum on this site:...

I wasn't aware of this till today when I got a report from a beta tester of RFP3. My old computer tends to crash with Open Rails, but I was able to run an activity in OR far enough to see the Great...

Nine people kindly volunteered. I guess that should be enough to catch all my mistakes. :-)

Thanks to you all.

The expanded and improved Richmond, Fredericksburg & Potomac route is ready for beta testing.

A discussion of the route is in another thread at...

I have two more demands! ;-)

In working on RF&P (CSX) activities, I found that there seem to be no available Virginia Railway Express cars appropriate to 2002. Engines, yes: F40 and RP39. But not...

Oh. Some young adults can't remember Sep. 11, 2001, and XP is from that era.

Don't make fun of us old people! ;-)

Thank you all.

32-bit XP is an operating system. It was current around when Train Simulator came out (2001). I like it better than the newer versions of Windows, but it can't handle a modern...

I wanted to finish extending the RF&P to Richmond using the program I know and love and hate, MSTS Route Editor, and I'm almost done. TSRE is recommended, so I decided to give it a try.

When I...

Brama said, "my virtual world demands only a modest amount of stuff." My demand list would include the original Metroliners. Just kidding about demands, and I've wished for the Metroliners before. My...

I ran into the same problem three and a half years ago. I posted the question on railroad.net and got an answer to use Firefox or Edge. https://railroad.net/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=165178 Firefox...

Thanks, Don. I guess I got a different view of the Auto Train terminal because I was usually passing it in rush hour (and for much of the year in the dark). Auto Train usually wasn't there when I...

Hey, Don. You said that the scenic detail improvements are done, sort of. What else did you want improved? Maybe I can make some further improvements. By the way, some of the screen shots on my...

I thought about including Broad Street Station too, even though it would be an anachronism, because it was the Science Museum by 2002, when the route is set.

Thanks for the compliments. I'm not going to extend the route to Main Street Station. I thought about it, but it would be five or six miles of urban scenery for not much action, and Main Street...

Fred, screen shots are on my website at http://www.stevedunham.50megs.com/rfp_msts_pix.html.

Thanks, Chris. That's exactly what I was hoping for. I wanted to include some prominent landmarks so that some of the locations look a bit like the real thing. When I made the first version of the...

I've finished track and most of the scenery as far south as Glen Allen. About 10 miles to go, then interactive objects, activity creation, and beta testing; I will probably finish it this coming...

"A Journey Back into the Land Before Time": Maybe everybody knows this, but "The Land Before Time" was a series of animated children's movies with talking dinosaurs. Pretty good, actually, and some...

Blue Comet Lines don't have flying birds (I made the Blue Comet Lines), but I'm sure that PRR East has some.

Yes, they look like the signal in the picture. Thank you.

All my Train Simulator stuff is on my 12-year-old computer, which has trouble handling Open Rails. Not enough memory, I suppose. So I still use MSTS for everything. (I do regular backups.) I got a...

I'm keeping the route circa 2003. Are your signals from that period (or the best match)? If so, yes, please. (As I recall, CSX put in new signals, sometimes in new places, since I created the route.)...

RFP2 is the Fredericksburg-Washington route I uploaded in 2005. (RFP1 crashed and burned.) RFP3 is the version with relaid track and better scenery that I am extending to Richmond. Building south...

Here's the list of non-default equipment. I was sure it was in the original upload, but anyway …
